ROMEO BREWERY opens at 5:30 PM on March 27, two beers that pair with the spring new shirasu and green shiso arrabbiata
ROMEO BREWERY (Oshiage, Tokyo) released its business information for Friday, March 27. It will be open from 5:30 PM to 11:00 PM and will serve its spring new menu item, "Arrabbiata with shirasu and green shiso." The brewery is also recommending Lemonglass Kölsch and Yuzu Hazy IPA as beers to pair with it.
Hop BroToday, ROMEO BREWERY in Oshiage has rolled out a spring new pairing. On March 27, it opens at 5:30 PM and is even recommending beers to go with the shirasu and green shiso arrabbiata.
MugiWait, they actually plan the beer around the pasta too!? And shirasu and green shiso feels like spring just showed up out of nowhere!
Hop BroThat’s the clever part. ROMEO BREWERY is a house-brewing beer pub in Oshiage, and what’s interesting is that it also makes pasta a main attraction.
MugiSo house-brewing means they make the beer right there in the shop? Just being directly connected to a brewery already sounds delicious!
Hop BroExactly. This time’s featured beer is Lemonglass Kölsch, a light, lively Kölsch with Alc. 5.0% and IBU 17. The lemongrass aroma pops gently, so it helps smooth out the heat of the arrabbiata.
MugiIBU again! What’s that number for? Is it the bitterness scale?
Hop BroThat’s right. IBU is a measure of bitterness, and the higher the number, the more bitter the beer tends to be. So Lemonglass Kölsch has restrained bitterness and is easy to pair with food.
MugiThen what about the other one, Yuzu Hazy IPA!? Just the name sounds like it wins with that juicy yuzu vibe!
Hop BroYuzu Hazy IPA has Alc. 5.8% and IBU 12, a juicy pour layered with yuzu peel, juice, and citrus hops. It has a bit of a peperoncino-like punch, so it pairs well with the tomato richness of the arrabbiata too.
MugiIt’s completely decided now! I want to stop by after work at 5:30 PM and compare the spring menu and these two beers!
Hop BroThat’s the plan. Enjoy pasta and house-brewed beer in Oshiage, and finish with a squeeze of lemon and a toast. That’s how you complete a spring night.
MugiWow, just imagining it makes me hungry! I want to go right now and enjoy both the beer and the pasta!
In an Instagram post, ROMEO BREWERY announced that it would be open on Friday, March 27 from 5:30 PM to 11:00 PM. The beer pub is located at 2-12-3 Oshiage, Sumida-ku, Tokyo, and its official website describes it as serving "house-made craft beer and pasta in Oshiage."
The dish introduced in this post is the spring new menu item, "Arrabbiata with shirasu and green shiso." It brings together green shiso and shirasu in a simple arrabbiata, with capers added as a hidden accent, and is said to taste even fresher with a squeeze of lemon. It is a seasonal suggestion that naturally connects craft beer and food.
The beers listed to accompany it are `Lemonglass Kölsch` and `Yuzu Hazy IPA`. According to the official menu, `Lemonglass Kölsch` has an Alc. of 5.0% and an IBU of 17, a lively Kölsch with a light burst of lemongrass. `Yuzu Hazy IPA` has an Alc. of 5.8% and an IBU of 12, a juicy Hazy IPA layered with yuzu peel, juice, and the bitterness of citrus hops. Both are designed with food pairing in mind; the former is suggested with karaage, and the latter with peperoncino.
One of ROMEO BREWERY's appeals is that you can enjoy house-brewed beer in Oshiage alongside dishes centered on pasta. Since weekday service starts at 5:30 PM, it is easy to stop by after work and try the combination of spring menu items and standard beers. It is a place worth visiting for both the food and the beer.
